A visit to our nations Capitol, literally!

Right now mom's best friend from college, Wesley is visiting from Texas! Simultaneously Dad is working on a special project for the appropriations committee this month, so his office is in the Capitol building. Consequently, we all got a private tour of the Capitol on Sunday.

The powerful appropriations committee gets the good real estate

88 degrees & humid: the Texan is comfortable in jeans :)

I don't care where we are, I want another Cheerio!

Is this Athens, Mom?
I have to admit, this beats my nation's Capitol in Austin

Afterward we headed over to the botanical gardens. Anna was especially fond of the "children's garden," where she found...another fountain!
